Brides for Boston

Orange County-based premier bridal designer Enzoani has created charitable endeavor, deemed “Brides for Boston” to help those who suffered the effects of the Boston Marathon tragedy. Enzoani is asking retailers and consumers to save remnant fabric strips from their wedding gown fittings and send them by July 31 to Enzoani, 1382 Valencia Ave.; Suite E; Tustin, California, 92780.

Given the designer’s flair for creating beautiful gowns, the Brides for Boston dress will be gorgeous.
